I don't lose sleep over having to add "reddit" or "forum" at the end of my search query.

Its not the EUs fault that US companies keep breaking the law. Don't break the law, don't get fined. It really is simple. EU companies aren't getting these fines.
Do you know how SearXNG works? It literally pulls search results from whatever other SEs you define it should pull from. You just get to reap the perks of all engines, without having to deal with their antagonistic design.
Who pays for all of it in the end? The people who still want to use Google's service and feed their all-reaching tentacles. But that is their choice.
Yeah, that's the thing about Sear. You can customise it how you want and that's it. No need to let some corpo be in control of what and how you see your results.
Yikes. Thanks
Is that real, or a misinterpretation of the law?
I meant to say SearXNG. Still being maintained.
I've tried SearXNG and stayed there. And it costs me a whole 0€ per month. 10€/month for a search engine is insane.
Wasn't Google in the middle of an antitrust investigation?
China does everything better than the US. iPhones are made in China.
And I really want to emphasize this. People are having an "all or nothing" attitude about this when that's not even the point.
If we can replace 50, 40, even 30% of the US software we use daily with European alternatives, it's already a massive win for us. The difference then adds up to millions at scale at the end of the fiscal year.
